No, we have power-domains for this.

I don't think it is true. You claim above that you have 0 as phy-cells,
means you have one phy. Here you say you can have up to 4 phys.

This needs to be specific. What the heck is "PHY parameter"?

Array? Then maxItems.

Why this cannot be deducted from compatible?

Do not instruct OS what to do. Explain why this is a hardware
characteristic.

Do not instruct OS what to do. Explain why this is a hardware
characteristic.

Do not instruct OS what to do. Explain why this is a hardware
characteristic.

NAK, you are just making things up.

All your descriptions copy the name of property. You basically say
nothing more. I already mentioned this before. Don't ignore the
feedback, but address it.

Drop everywhere "Set this flag to", because it is redundant. Now compare
what is left with property name.

Property name: realtek,ldo-force-enable
Your description: "force enable ldo mode"

How is this helpful to anybody?
